I have been working for a retail dept store for about a year. I have been a good employee there, never really had any problems. While at work one day, my manager called me into a back room where there was an LP guy. Long story short, he asked about a purchase I had made using a coupon and saying that I stole from the store because the coupon wasnt mine (a customer gave it to me). At this store employees can use coupons, I wasnt aware that you could not use a coupon that was given by a customer. He made me sign a statement saying i was guilty of unauthorized discounts and had to pay $50 (coupon takes $25 off a $75 purchase and i used it twice) and that It was theft and I made the store lose $50 and my name would go in some national theft database. Does this even sound right? I am still shocked, I dont know what the hell happened. I am not a thief.
